Vickery Rose Retirement Community

The tour at Vickery Rose Retirement Community was very good. The people were very nice and gracious. They answered all my questions. The facility was very, very nice, and I enjoyed it. The rooms were fine, the layout, it is rather large, but it's all very, very good. The rooms were nice. They have various arts and crafts rooms and a library, they have a lot of seating and visiting areas, and that was fine. I think they only do two meals a day.

Vickery Rose Retirement Community was friendly and welcoming. The manager was very kind and open. The person at the front desk was also very kind. They gave me a calendar of activities, and it seemed like they had a variety of things to do each day that involved the mind, body, and spirit. They had physical activities, mental activities, social activities, game rooms, and a theater. There were lots of opportunities for self care, like getting your hair done, your feet done, or getting therapy. The apartments were good size. They were bigger than some I've seen. I could see myself living there.

I visited Vickery Rose Retirement Community; my mother has already moved in. It's awesome. The staff, the food, the environment, it's awesome. She's thriving. It's like a resort; it's like a hotel that you just live at. The staff is very attentive, very friendly, very welcoming, and very efficient. I go there all the time to have lunch and dinner with her, and the food is awesome. Right now, she's at karaoke, and then she's going to bingo. They have things all the time. The managers live onsite, and they are part of a lot of the activities as well. Her room is awesome. She has an 800-square foot apartment. It's the same size as her place that I moved her out of as far as her apartment, so it's really good.

The facility is superb! I had a list of places that i visited on my mom's behalf, and Vickery Rose by far was the best one. The food is very good, the staff is friendly, efficient and kind, the activities and the services they offer are awesome. We moved my mom in 3 weeks ago, and she is thriving under their care.

We visited Vickery Rose Retirement Community. It was very impressive. It was just too expensive for me. The marketing tour guide, Anthony, was very welcoming, enthusiastic, helpful, and courteous. The facility was very well laid out. It was very large. It had a good design, and it seemed to be convenient. Some residents were watching a movie, exercising, eating, and some were sitting out front.

Vickery Rose Retirement Community was clean and superb. The person was very attentive. It was a nice tour and a nice facility. It's for people 55 and older. I like that all the meals and everything were included in one price. The accommodations and the amenities were on point. The pricing wasn't for me though. I'm just looking for some temporary housing because I'm in the process of buying a townhouse or a condo. That was going to just be a temporary spot and the pricing was a little bit for my budget. I'm a young 60 and a lot of the residents there were a little older, which I didn't mind, but right now I prefer to have a standalone condo. It's not ruled out, so my goal, if I can't get anything moving into a condo or townhouse by then, I might pick them up and just rent until I find something. It's a little pricier than what I wanted to pay, but it was good pricing. It's reasonable for what they were offering. They included the meals, the Internet, the housekeeping services, and all the amenities. Everybody was nice and my grandson loved it. Most places 55 and older discourage grandkids from visiting, but here, they welcome the grandkids and even had an arcade room, which was very impressive. They're friendlier to grandkids. They had the ice cream machine and popcorn machine for the kids. That was nice that they incorporated that in that facility. Being in a pandemic and limited to their grandkids for a year, most seniors want to be able to entertain their grandkids on a weekend, to visit and spend the night, and that place was very accommodating. What keeps grandparents young is having their grandkids around. They had a chef, and it's almost like a cruise line setup. It's state-of-the-art. I went to the dining room and they had everything laid out. I was impressed with that. It's almost like a cruise line without taking a cruise, and it's better than a cruise. I can go and feel like I'm on a cruise ship but not floating on the water. That's what I felt when I was there like I was on an extended vacation type of thing on one of the five-star cruise lines.
